    The Hardest Floyd Has Been Hit?

    In his 38 fights, who has hit Floyd Joy Sinclair the hardest? Corley springs to mind but I am struggling to think of other fights in which Pretty Boy Joy has been caught cleanly with a hard punch.

    That was the only time, I can recall, where he has been legitimately hurt during a fight and it was only for a few seconds. If you really think about that it is pretty amazing.

      Judah stunned him a few times and even dropped him, Castillo caught him on the ropes a few times too.

        Corely Judah have Hurt him.... DLH got few good shots in there but nothing major... The guy is Hard to hit cleanly there is no question about that..

        This is an interesting point..

        I remember Lennox Lewis before the Klitschko fight saying he didnt Think Vitali could handle a BIG punch.. because he never had to...( I think he meant Wald)

        But anyways.. How will Floyd react once he eventually gets Popped???

        I mean Corley is no monster.. Nor is Judah... Yet because Floyd has built little Punch tolerance over his career (You cant train a chin.. But you can learn to take a punch.. Alot of it is shock..the more you get hit.. the less shocking it becomes) And that is why the few Good shots that DID land.. seemed to trouble him...

          I've only seem Floyd hurt against Corley when they were both throwing right hands, Corley's landed on the chin.

          I agree about the punch tolerance. I think Roy Jones is the perfect example of that.

            That's the point right there, its hard to stun him, his deffense is getting better and better, he's very fast and careful throwing and immediately closes up. Unless you catch him while he's punching or hit him with something he doesn't see, you're **** outta luck.

                Delahoya hit him with some very solid body shots which had no impact. I was very impressed by his body strength.

                I'd guess that he'll react pretty well to getting hit to the head but that if his body is ever hurt he's going to have real problems as that will definitely take away his mobility and probably get inside his head.

                  I dont think Floyd joy can be hurt by a bodyshot IMHO, I mean the guy is dedicated and trains his body hard..He was hit by a lot of bodyshot in both the castillo fight and didnt go down.

                  PBF has been hit hard a lot of times, Judah had him down IMO and Corley stunned him...Dela hoya hurt him as well, The Roy jones comparism is also way off because his defense was based on reflexes and never seems to get him while Mayweather on the other hand do gets hit just not enough.

                    castillo had never been stopped before either and look what happened there.... i agree floyds body is ripped but there are spots where no amount of training can cover and hatton is a master at finding them
